10.6.7 Triggering Lock Snapshots via MIDI
If MASCHINE is running as a plug-in in a host environment, you can trigger and change Lock
snapshots using MIDI Note or MIDI Program Change messages sent from your host to the MA-
SCHINE plug-in.
When this feature is enabled, MIDI notes messages, or Program Change messages are linked to
MASCHINE’s Lock snapshots, whether they contain a snapshot or not:
Matrix Click-Pad/Snapshot MIDI Note Number Program Change Number
1 0 (C-2) 1
2 1 (C#-2) 2
3 2 (D-2) 3
… … …
64 63 (D#3) 64
The primary use case for triggering Lock snapshots via MIDI is when using MASCHINE in plug-
in mode. However, it is also possible using an external MIDI device such as a keyboard to trig-
ger a snapshot.
MIDI Note numbers: Host applications use various conventions to name MIDI notes. For
example, in MASCHINE, MIDI note number 0 is referred to as C-2 and MIDI note num-
ber 60 (middle C) as C3. Please refer to the documentation of your host to know which
convention is used.
Program Change numbers: Some host applications send Program Change numbers in
the range [0–127] instead of [1–128]. In that case, the PC number 0 will trigger snap-
shot slot 1, PC 1 will trigger snapshot slot 2, etc. Please refer to the documentation of
your host to know in which range it sends Program Change numbers.
